ICE Detainee Death Sparks Outrage: Experts Predict More Fatalities
A 68-year-old Mexican-born man died while being transported by a private company from a local jail to a federal detention center, marking the first such death in at least a decade. The cause of death is under investigation, but the events surrounding the incident are confusing, with the family seeking answers. The case raises concerns about the increasing reliance on private companies to transport detainees amid the current administration’s focus on mass deportations and a lack of oversight, which experts predict could lead to more deaths.
